Didn't the guy with that Oxxford overcoat win a similar auction last week?

This is a very odd auction, and one that makes me suspicious of the seller. Why sell the labels when you know the buyer is very likely going to use them for a nefarious purpose (sew them onto a fake Oxxford jacket)?

Yeah, I mine buttons off of old oxxford's all the time but labels? Now why would someone want the labels.


No good can come from that....

LA Guy actually sews on Oxxford labels to his jeans to give them some uniqueness. Apparently women always ask if they can feel his Super 150s denim.

Maybe also so you can give one to your tattoo artist to use as a model for that Oxxford Clothes tattoo you've always wanted.

Giving the seller the benefit of the doubt, perhaps he's showing/including the logos in order to vouch for the authenticity of the buttons.

It probably wouldn't be the craziest thing that's ever been done. I've seen some people with real brand devotion
